We love —
- Waking up to open water views in one of Europe's oldest towns, where 2,400 years of Dalmatian history sit quietly outside your window.
- Grazing through an evening at The Bay, from freshly caught fish paired with a Hvar Plavac Mali to a lingering dessert chosen with the help of the sommelier.
- Moving between the pine-shaded pool and the spa, ending the day in the jacuzzi or on a treatment table before the sun goes down.

This is a bed and breakfast stay.
The Bay is Hotel Antica's signature restaurant, serving freshly caught fish, locally grown vegetables, and Dalmatian recipes with a modern touch. An 11-metre wine display lines the room, with sommeliers on hand to guide each pairing from a selection of Hvar's finest alongside international labels. The Pool Bar serves handcrafted cocktails, chilled local wines, freshly pressed juices, and light snacks directly to your lounger throughout the day. Order a glass of Plavac Mali, find your spot among the pines, and let the afternoon take care of itself. Perched directly above the sea, the Orangerie Terrace serves breakfast, light meals, and cocktails from morning through to the evening. Fresh salads, local cheeses, charcuterie, and seasonal small plates sit alongside wines from the island and drinks mixed to order, all with open water views.
Your time
Spend your days by the open-air pool, where 60 sun loungers sit among fragrant pines with the sea stretching out beyond. When the afternoon calls for something quieter, the wellness centre offers a restorative retreat - personalised massages, revitalising facials, a sauna, and an indoor jacuzzi, each treatment tailored to leave you feeling restored.
